Description Dumitru Ceara 2023-01-24 15:54:00 UTC
Description of problem:

OVS/OVN binaries send out a backtrace to their monitor processes (if any) only if they link with lib-unwind.  Currently downstream (and upstream) RPMs are built without lib-unwind.

The upstream OVS spec file requires lib-unwind:
